Marie Claveau

She married first in 1635 to Nicolas de Lécole, Lord of Saint-Maurice.

After his death, she married Philibert Gassot, known as Du Croisy, at Poitiers on 29 July 1652.

They had at least two daughters: Angélique (died aged nine) and the actor Marie-Angélique.

[2] She joined Molière's company in 1659, where she gained her stage name Mademoiselle du Croisy (a stage-name also taken by her daughter).

[1] Her poor acting and friction with other company members led to her departure from it in 1665.
